ETNZ's Pier 30-32 Progress

[Photoboy]

ETNZ is 1/2 way through completing their base at Pier 30-32. If you were wondering
what the weird ship shaped building is, it's a Waka, the traditional canoes of the Maori.

i cannot tell from the pixs. are they taking over the WHOLE piers area? i remember one huge portion of piers 30-32 was barricaded and some work was going on; did they take that area over? is the parking area(s) on the north side of piers 30-32 still open?

After what seems like the blink of an eye the Emirates Team New Zealand base in San Francisco is now set up.
The labour force has now turned its priorities to getting the AC72 ready for its first day sailing on the San Francisco Bay.

Any idea when that will be? Is ETNZ taking up ALL of pier30/32? Is my foto spot just south of the bbridge forever gone?

To answer your question, the pier(s) are pretty large and while ETNZ staked down roots
and has all their concerns based out of their, Luna Rossa is currently moving in as well.







The team bases are pretty spread apart and I suspect we'll see Oracle and hopefully
Artemis setting up their staging in the days ahead.
